He begins his speech in front of an enthusiastic audience.

 

"The good, merciful, generous and legitimate Count Lewisham was elected by an overwhelming majority to Admius Legistrad of Eslandola's Colonial Council!"

 

"Count Lewisham brings peace, freedom, justice and security to the Empire of Eslandola!"

 

Everyone sings the Count Lewisham party song:

 

La Isla Nellisa

 

 ♪♪Como puede ser verdad♪♪

♪♪Last night I dreamt of Nova Terreli♪♪

♪♪Just like I'd never gone, I knew the song♪♪

♪♪A young girl with eyes like the desert♪♪

♪♪It all seems like yesterday, not far away♪♪

 

♪♪Tropical the island breeze♪♪

♪♪All of nature wild and free♪♪

♪♪This is where I long to be♪♪

♪♪La Isla Nellisa♪♪

♪♪And when the samba played♪♪

♪♪The sun would set so high♪♪

♪♪Ring through my ears and sting my eyes♪♪

♪♪Your Eslandolan melody♪♪

"We have just received the current interim results of the election. The Count Lewisham party is in 1st place by an overwhelming majority. So, it's free for all wine, beer and rum!"

Nice little vignette and a fun read too! It even has a musical number. :pir_laugh2:

Many Thanks. I had no idea what to write, so I composed a party song.

These minfigures are so detailed, very cool!  And squirrel!!  Nice use of brown lifesavers in the tree too.

Many Thanks. I like the soldiers' uniforms and a squirrel is funny and fits.

Nothing like a rhyme to sway the masses! :pir-grin:  And these guys have the look too - now I just wonder what Count Lewisham paid them where they got such good republican hearts from :pir-laugh:

Funny statement. :pir_laugh2:

These good guys are republican by conviction because it is a good and just party. :innocent2:

Count Lewisham is a men of honor! :pir-grin:

Excellent, things are starting to get rolling.

And that song!  Music!  Wait, who's that girl?  Sounds like a ...  but I don't want to preach. 

La Isla Nellisa!  Of course! :pir_laugh2:

 

Monkey = check

Squirrel = check

What could go wrong?

Great entry! Are the bayonets from brickforge? 

Thank you very much, it was a good opportunity to showcase my black uniformed Brotherhood of NOD Land Forces in the challenge. It goes well together because my username is NOD and my main character is Kane. :pir-grin:

You recognized correctly, the bayonet is from BrickForge.

Nice vignette and great minifigs! The Count has got some supporters, apparently…

Where do the custom printings come from? :pir-sweet:

Thank you very much! I got the minifigures as a gift. I am quite sure that the Assassin's Creed minifigures were bought from a reputable trader for a lot of money. :pir-grin:
